try some high nutrient detox foods like cilantro, steamed kale and parsley. also drink lots of water. espon salt bath to detox.

I plateau a lot too, for a long period of time. I don't know what HBA1c is. My fasting blood sugar was so high that my doctor wanted to put me on Metformin, but I asked her for some time to see if i could do it with diet and exercise. I have now had two excellent fasting blood sugar test results in a row, so I am proof…

wow, thanks a million for some ideas on something different to try. My protein is always high so I can try to lower it and may carbs are always low, so I can try to raise it a bit.
